Show IS I JAPANESE AND CHINESE, t, The Chinese are not an inventive people, but t" are as imitative as so many monkeys. Hence our belief is that they never instituted the boycott against American goods. Just now Japan is talk-l talk-l ing low and sweet to the world, but she is not p losing a trick. Her military school is thronged with Chinese students; .her armies are being moulded into form by Japanese officers. Japan j intends to keep the open door but to so manipulate manipu-late China that the open door will be practically -4 valueless to outside nations. China has no I ' grievance against the United States that she has j not been suffering for twenty years. We be-I be-I lieve the boycott was instituted by ex-Minister Wu, helped by Japan. We do not believe that were our Government to open the Golden Gate to the indiscriminate immigration of Chinese it would materially increase our exports to the Celestial Ce-lestial Kingdom, because the Mongolians are now I, working together under Japanese direction. The ' idea is to increase the manufactures in China and j Japan, and to train employees until they can un-' un-' dersell the world and be a yellow and brown ter-I ter-I ror sure enough. The war with Russia is what 1 finally set the buzzing hive into full roar. The I steady victories of the Japanese against Russia I has removed from the Mongolian mind the fear 1 of the superior prowess of the white races, and jt j. now it is to be not only "Asia for Asiatics" but in addition, "the world's trade for the Asiatics." I, Speaking of immigration, there is no justice I " in excluding Chinese coolies and admitting with-r with-r out limit Japanese coolies. Of the two races the It J Chinese are to be preferred. They are more sin-I sin-I cere than the Japs, are better and more faithful I workers, more reliable in all their ways. There is I no possible sense or justice in admitting one race f and excluding the other. If ' |
